Fed-up woman gets epic revenge on neighbour who blasts music at 2am | UK | News
A woman has been praised for her ‘epic’ revenge on an entitled neighbour who kept her up until the early hours blasting music.
When she living in university, she explained how her neighbour, Sarah, would play loud music until 2am almost every night – with little to no regard for the others trying to sleep around her.
She said on Reddit: “I had this neighbour in the dorms named Sarah. Sarah wasn’t evil, just… loud.
“Every night she’d blast music at 1am or 2am, usually when I had an early class. No matter how many times people asked her to turn it down, she’d laugh it off and say, ‘Relax, it’s college’.”
One night before a big exam, she knocked on Sarah’s door and tried to plead with her to turn the music down so she could get a good nights’ sleep – but she just turned it up louder.
So, she came up with a plan to get revenge on her entitled neighbour. She added: “I laid in bed staring at the ceiling, absolutely fuming.
“The next morning, after my exam, I decided I wasn’t going to let it slide. Sarah was notorious for sleeping in late usually till noon and she hated mornings more than anything.
“So for the next week, I set my alarm for 6.30am sharp, right when the hall was dead quiet, and placed my Bluetooth speaker against the thin wall we shared.
“I blasted the cheesiest pop songs I could find, think bubblegum boy bands from the early 2000s.”
On the first day, Sarah stumbled out of her room “groggy and furious” and by day three, she was begging her to stop.
She added: “I just smiled and said, ‘Relax, it’s college’. Funny enough, after that week, her late-night concerts mysteriously stopped. She never admitted defeat, but the silence was golden.”
Commenting on her post, one user said: “We had neighbours like that. They would party until around 4am most weekends and odd nights during the week. I was a shift worker on early shift (6am start) so I was usually up at 4.30am to 5am.
“I was offered to do nights instead, so I’d get home for 6.30am and blast whatever music I liked directly onto their bedroom wall and made all kind of noise vacuuming, banging around etc. The complaints from them were glorious.”
Another user added: “I really hate people with main character syndrome. Good on you though.”
A third user said: “This is the perfect kind of revenge petty, harmless, but effective. Nothing is more satisfying than giving someone a taste of their own medicine.”
One ore user added: “I would have used Yoko Ono or bagpipes instead but otherwise definitely approve.”
